  <p>Many people have requested that <code>operator co_await</code> be overloaded to
behave as a TRY operator when supplied with an Outcome type.</p>

<p>Outcome does not implement that extension, nor will we accept PRs
contributing support for this. We think you should use <code>BOOST_OUTCOME_CO_TRY()</code>
as this will lead to more maintainable and future proof code.</p>

<p>However, we deliberately do not get in the way of you implementing
that overload yourself in your own Outcome-based code. Just be sure
that you document what you are doing loudly and clearly, and be
aware that future C++ standards may have a proper <code>operator try</code>
overload mechanism.</p>
